[ot] motor start capacitor
 

Ok, a lot of wreck'ers maintain their own equipment, so might be able
to help me here.

I need a 5 uF 120/240 VAC motor run capacitor. The specific one in
the motor I'm fixing is a CBB61, which is quite popular and easy to
find - if you need 1000 or more. I can't seem to find anywhere to buy
*one*.

But anywhere I can get a 5uF 240VAC cap would do. Small is good too;
it needs to fit inside a housing.

So... Ideas about where to buy motor run caps?

Perhaps an HVAC supply shop.

A motor shop, or an HVAC supply outlet... but double-check what you're looking
for. The title of your post says "motor start cap" but in the text you say you
need a run cap. Not the same. Make sure you get the right one.

I always get my Capacitors, on the odd occasion when I need one, from the
local Motor Rewind Shop.
